Flood A Novel in Pictures 4th edition

The artist Eric Drooker is probably best known for paintings that have appeared on many New Yorker magazine covers since 1994. Those covers, which often portray Drooker's native Manhattan in all its wonder, humor, and menace, reflect his deep love of the city he began exploring as a boy. Inspired by social-realist art of the first half of the 20th century, Drooker is also the creator of three graphic novels: Flood! A Novel in Pictures (1992), Blood Song: A Silent Ballad (2002), and Howl: A Graphic Novel (2010). His friendship with the late poet Allen Ginsberg led to several projects, including, most recently, Drooker's animation for the 2010 film Howl, starring James Franco.

Finally available as a deluxe hardcover, this special edition of Flood A Novel in Pictures features an "After the Flood" section that includes thirty-two pages of bonus artwork and an in-depth interview with the author. An American Book Award winner and an Editor's Choice pick by The New York Times, Flood is the powerful first graphic novel by Eric Drooker, frequent cover artist for The New Yorker and creator of Blood Song. Flood is a modern novel written in the ancient language of pictures, with an expressionist, film noir edge. This special edition also features a striking new cover.
